Trinidad XMLMenuModel
Hi Gurus,
I'm trying to use the new XMLMenuModel from Apache MyFaces Trinidad.
I got some code from here: <http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/devguide/xmlMenuModel.html> http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/devguide/xmlMenuModel.html
I've not been able to display my menu hierarchy ;-(
My understanding is that:
1 / I have to declare a menu hierarchy into an XML file. Here's the content of my test menu metadata.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<menu xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/menu" resourceBundle="menus" var="rmenus">
<itemNode id="root" label="Root" action="root" focusViewId=""/>
<itemNode id="g0" label="#{rmenus.airline}" action="global0" focusViewId="">
<itemNode id="g00" action="global00" focusViewId=""/>
<itemNode id="g01" action="global01" focusViewId=""/>
</itemNode>
<itemNode id="g1" label="Global 1" action="global1" focusViewId=""/>
<itemNode id="g2" label="Global 2" action="global2" focusViewId=""/>
</menu>
2 / Declare my metadata file into faces-config.xml
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>root_menu</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.model.XMLMenuModel</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
<managed-property>
<property-name>source</property-name>
<value>/WEB-INF/menu-metadata.xml</value>
</managed-property>
</managed-bean>
3 / reference it into my pages
Then use it in navigation panes into my JSPX pages.
<trh:body>
<tr:form>
<tr:panelPage>
<f:facet name="navigation1">
<tr:navigationPane var="menutab" value="#{root_menu}" hint="tabs" level="1">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<tr:commandNavigationItem text="#{menutab.label}" action="#{menutab.doAction}"/>
</f:facet>
</tr:navigationPane>
</f:facet>
<f:facet name="navigation2">
<tr:navigationPane var="menutab" value="#{root_menu}" hint="bar" level="2">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<tr:commandNavigationItem text="#{menutab.label}" action="#{menutab.doAction}"/>
</f:facet>
</tr:navigationPane>
</f:facet>
…..
I cannot display a level 2 menu in my menubar.
In fact, the only level accessible into my pages is the top one ;-(
What did I miss?

Thanks Abhi,
It works now ;-)
The last problem is to load a resource file to globalize my labels.

Yves,
Please try the following:
1) the level on tr:navigationPane is 0 based.I see just levels 0 and 1 in your xml menu metadata.So the levels on navigationPane should be 0 and 1
2) You would want to set the focusViewId on the itemNodes in your menu metadata xml,as without them you won't get selection state on the components which use the xmlMenuModel.
Thanks,
Abhi
